Objective
To edit or define thresholds for a resource model.
Background information
For each resource model, you can define one or more thresholds. Usually,
the numeric value you enter in this window represents a limit above or below
which you do not want your resource to perform. The default values that you
define here can be modified later when this resource model is included in
a profile on the IBM Tivoli Monitoring server.
Before you begin
None
When you finish
Check the Tasks view to verify that you do not have any errors in your
resource model. If the Tasks view displays errors, correct the errors before
running the resource model. The Tasks view displays in the bottom pane of
the IBM Tivoli Monitoring Resource Model Builder.
Procedure
- Open the resource model.
- Select the Thresholds page.
- Select the threshold to edit or click Add Threshold to
add a new threshold.
Additional Information: Complete
the following theshold options:
- Internal name
- The internal name used by the VisitTree function to determine if a property
has exceeded a threshold value. This name must be alphanumeric, start with
an alphabetic character, and contain no blank spaces.
- Descriptive name
- The name that is used in IBM Tivoli Monitoring windows.
- Default Value
- The numeric value associated with this threshold by default. This value
can be changed by the operator from the IBM Tivoli Monitoring windows.
- Description
- The description of this threshold as it displays on the IBM Tivoli Monitoring windows.
This description should include the descriptive name of the event with which
this threshold is associated, the names of the attributes being monitored,
and a relational comparison of the threshold to the attribute.
For example,
when the counter, PrcUsrTime, exceeds this threshold,
the event, Ev_w2k_Thread_PrcUsrTime_too_high, generates.
- (Optional) Click Remove to
remove a threshold.
- Save the changes, or go to another page to continue making changes.
